Sending ACT late

I submitted my EA to UNC before the deadline today, but the ACT servers are down because of maintenance, so I cannot send my ACT scores in time. I was able to send my SAT scores, but my act is much better. Not sure what to do, or how I can prove to the college that the reason for my late scores is a website problem. Do you think they will be forgiving?

Probably, but I hope you learn for the next time. No need to leave it ALL for the last minute.

Remember to check a college’s website to see if it provides the actual answer to your question because it can sometimes relieve a lot of stress: see http://admissions.unc.edu/apply/deadlines/ where it says test scores can arrive up to two or three weeks after the application deadline.
